James Forrest has been named in Steve Clarke’s 28-man provisional squad for Euro 2024.
The 32 year-old Celtic winger has forced his way into the Scotland manager’s plans after returning to the Celtic team in March after being out of the Celtic squad for several months at the start of the year.
Forrest made a huge impact and played a major role in Celtic winning the league and reaching the Scottish Cup Final, which he is set to start in this Saturday against theRangers in the first ever Glasgow Derby Scottish Cup Final.
Jamesy is joined by fellow Celts Anthony Ralston, Greg Taylor and Callum McGregor and there are places for former Celts Craig Gordon, Kieran Tierney, Jack Hendry, Stuart Armstrong, Ryan Christie and Ben Doak, with the former Celtic Academy star, who jumped ship to join Liverpool, making the provisional squad.
With various injury doubts, Clarke has opted for a 28 man squad announcement at this stage which will then be cut to 26 players no later than 11pm on 7 June, that’s also the same day that Scotland take on Finland in the final warm-up friendly.
